Two Wedding Quilts and a Baby Quilts

FIRST WEDDING QUILT  

In the last couple of months, I've finished two wedding quilts and a baby quilt.  Veronica and Logan received a bright scrappy quilt that is called "Shattered Angles" and was designed by Susan Purney Mark.  I was signed up to take a workshop with her years ago when I was a member of the London Friendship Guild.  Fortunately I bought the book from her at our meeting Thursday evening as the next morning we had a major snowstorm and I couldn't make it in!  I followed the instructions in the book and started on it.  Years later, I finished the top and found backing for it and it sat in a basket for a few more years.  It is finally finished :-).

A better photo of the colours.  Here you can also see the quilting by Chris Bogart.

The backing was an older Kaffe Fassett print which matched nicely.

 

 

 

ANOTHER WEDDING QUILT 

The next quilt was for Shaylynn and Caleb who got married a week later!  Shaylynn works in a flower shop so I thought perhaps flowers and maybe houses.  I played around with some patterns and settled on tulips and houses.

I used some fun prints for the doors and the houses were all done in black and grey prints.

I had just enough pink to add a few pink tulips among the yellow ones.

Here you can see the lovely butterfly quilting that my friend Chris Bogart used to quilt it.

I had this grey fabric which worked great for the backing.  

 

 

 

 

 BABY QUILT

I made this baby quilt for the daughter of a friend of mine who had her first baby recently.  The pattern is "Ring Toss" by Swirly Girls.

  

I quilted this one myself with little loops around the rings

and some back and forth lines in the borders

I chose the colours for the rings from this giraffe fabric and it was bound with a grey binding.
